Use

The Information is exclusively intended for general information purposes and is not intended as a recommendation, design, structural calculation, estimate or other warranty or representation for the visitor. Trespa does not warrant and accepts no responsibility for the accuracy and/or completeness of the Information (including information on the Trespa products) or that the Information is suitable for the purpose for which it is consulted by you or otherwise. Customers and third parties must have a professional adviser inform them about (the suitability of) the Trespa products for all desired applications and about applicable laws and regulations.

Colours used in Trespa’s communications (including but not limited to printed matter) and in samples of Trespa’s products may differ from the colours of the Trespa products to be supplied. Samples are not intended for use in product tests and are not representative of characteristics of the Trespa products. Trespa’s products and samples are produced within the specified colour tolerances and the colours (of production batches) may differ, even if the same colour is used. The viewing angle also influences the colour perception. Metallics panels feature a surface whose colour appears to change based on the direction from which it is viewed. The specified colour stability and colour specifications relate only to the decorative surface of the Trespa products, not to the core material and samples of the Trespa products. Trespa products are delivered ex-works, with straight, sawn sides.

The most recent version of the delivery programme and the Material Properties Datasheet can be found at www.trespa.info. Only the information in the most recent and valid Material Properties Datasheet should be used to select and provide advice regarding Trespa products.
